How to prepare to build the engine?

Installation of the engine takes place in the garage on the stand by the wall - Engine and Gearbox of the Satsuma car | My Summer Car - Assembling the Satsuma car - My Summer Car Guide

Installation of the engine takes place in the garage on the stand by the wall. You will find all the parts on the shelves and the floor at the back of the garage, and you should buy the alternator belt and oil filter from the store. Remember that the engine won't break down if it accidentally falls off. Use the option to rotate it and put it in different positions frequently to get the best possible access to hidden screws. To move the engine, you must always click on the BLOCK section. Place the toolbox on the tabletop for easy and quick access.

Block, Crankshaft and Camshaft

Start from the main base - engine BLOCK and the CRANKSHAFT. Combine these parts together at your workstation. To twist this pair together you will need three parts called the MAIN BEARING. They are marked consecutively with numbers and each fits only in a specific place - on the outer parts of the block and in the middle.

Crankshaft goes inside the block. The bearings will hold it in three places. - Engine and Gearbox of the Satsuma car | My Summer Car - Assembling the Satsuma car - My Summer Car Guide
